Supported by the Interior Union, TORUS is a startup company that was made the parent body of the former GAE. Through the acquisition of what remained of the now-destroyed Akva Vit and the Rayleonard engineers in the company at the time, they are able to utilize extremely specialized Kojima technology and high output booster tech. As a strong successor of both GAE and Akva Vit qualities, they are in fierce competition with Omer Science in the field of Kojima technology (in which they appear to be winning as they have already created numerous Kojima weapons as well as a Kojima based NEXT model named ARGYROS) and are not on good terms with GA either.
